-Organize with your neighborhood and city to form mutual aid networks capable of resisting coercion (like we were always going to be forced to do anyway)
-Failing that, make literally any demands of the blue fascist party whose endless imperial dipshittery you slavishly indulged at every turn. Use any fucking leverage at all instead of showing your belly preemptively.
-Failing all else, simply do not set the precedent that a candidate can run on the wholesale fascist extermination of an entire people and still receive your support. Simply do not throw 2 million human beings into the jaws of death as a matter of cowardice and taint yourself forever as a collaborator of Holocaust 2. Its actually super easy not to do that.
That ship has sailed now, and nobody is going to want you in their antifascist organization now that you've loudly declared your willingness to sell out the vulnerable. I think at this point you should probably just like, crawl under a rock and never come out.
I dont feel like organizing
"...therefore i must support genocide! There was nothing else I could do, I didn't feel like it!"
Get a cyanide pill ready for Nuremburg 2 buddy
Uh yeah im not concerned with being a part of an imaginary group. The Lemmy desire to make believe that someone saying they dont vote for the violent dictator and are wanting to vote to make their party align with their values is the same as someone supporting genocide is stupid.
This is why its such an ineffective argument. It makes you sound completely out of touch with reality. It reminds me of the various factions at the beginning of "The Life of Brian."
Imaginary group
Damn someone better tell all those states they put an imaginary group on the ballot. I ain't even reading the rest of your bad faith bullshit, the fact that you don't care to do anything but support genocide and "didn't feel like organizing", and even now go to absurd lengths to defend your disgusting lazy slug fascism, has earned you a seat in hell and a place in a summary court before that. I can also tell you're exactly the kind of coward who will, when the tables are turned, pretend to have been on the side of humanity all along. Luckily you're as shit a liar as you are a person, and I doubt you'll escape justice.
And we're just going to continue to pretend that Republicans don't exist. Because only the Democrats get judged around here.
OP apparently doesn't know what gaslighting means.
No that was trump
I was at UCLA during the Biden administration when the four armored pigs broke some college kid's arm in front of me, you lying little worm. I still remember the sound.
Traitor is when you refuse to support Palestinian genocide
I mean yeah, I proudly consider myself a traitor to Amerikkka. If you're not at this point, you're either ignorant to the point of uselessness or have something unfixably wrong with you🤷♂️. But seethe about it I guess

I'm incredibly skeptical of any strategy that depends on trying to "convince" capitalist organizations to help the people. This is entirely contrary to how the working class has historically taken power, the organization must itself be a worker organization. Lady Izdihar made an excellent model of the Leninist theory of revolutionary organization:
Worker organizing has consistently been the most effective and widespread form of gaining working class control. We cannot simply appeal to congress, even if we could flip one against the system they represent, they would be drummed out of the party and relentlessly harassed. The capitalist system protects itself from within, and must be overthrown by the working class.
I no longer vote for neoliberals or folks who have ever received aipac money or money from the other Israeli lobbies.
Period.
Works for me.
Edit: Willing to change my stance if they come out publicly against money in politics and actually get it passed, locally or otherwise.
I vote every election. Not sure what you’re mumbling about.
Blue no matter who got us where we are today. The democratic leadership is pathetic as fuck.
Yea I do it a lot too, I guess I was asking what you mean maybe. Not sure. I get attacked from the center and the far left I suppose not including the right
I guess I care more about the far left and the center than I do about the right but I don’t see it like a football team maybe
That’s not me downvoting you at all by the way
Oh are we already starting with the "democrats are just as bad, so dont vote in protest" memes again?
Get the fuck out of here. This bullshit is why our country is what it is right now. Millions of people who voted Dem chose to not vote, and millions more repuplican voter did vote because of the election fraud bs pushing them to 'outvote' the dems.
You wanna have a discussion about the problems with both sides? Save it for after the fascists are out of our streets, and back in the rat holes they belong in.

The party is necessary to actually overthrow the government. Voting for said party helps show that the present system is rigged, and helps get the word out about their platform. See Lady Izdihar's diagram on the Leninist theory of revolution:
In short, PSL is a revolutionary party that engages in electoralism not for belief in winning, but as a part of revolutionary strategy.
Should we Participate in Bourgeois Parliaments? - V. I. Lenin
Even if only a fairly large minority of the industrial workers, and not “millions” and “legions”, follow the lead of the Catholic clergy—and a similar minority of rural workers follow the landowners and kulaks (Grossbauern)—it undoubtedly signifies that parliamentarianism in Germany has not yet politically outlived itself, that participation in parliamentary elections and in the struggle on the parliamentary rostrum is obligatory on the party of the revolutionary proletariat specifically for the purpose of educating the backward strata of its own class, and for the purpose of awakening and enlightening the undeveloped, downtrodden and ignorant rural masses. Whilst you lack the strength to do away with bourgeois parliaments and every other type of reactionary institution, you must work within them because it is there that you will still find workers who are duped by the priests and stultified by the conditions of rural life; otherwise you risk turning into nothing but windbags.
Lenin's argument was that even if an electoral system is deeply flawed, participation is necessary in order to reach people who are invested in the system. In addition to spreading the message, it also provides a way to assess the strength and popularity of a platform, and it can serve as a means of testing and weeding out prospective leaders who might be opportunists.
I love these asinine takes. I've yet to have a single person come up with a convincing argument about how I helped Trump, but let's see you give it a shot.
I didn't vote for Kamala(or Trump, before some braindead moron claims otherwise)
I live in California.
California historically has voted blue for the last ~60 years.
Predictably, Kamala won California by a large margin like any sane person expected.
So how did my vote help Trump? I showed my displeasure with the Democrat Party AND Kamala still got my states electoral votes regardless. So how, exactly, did my vote support Trump?
Or is there actually a shitload of nuance to this issue that you conveniently throw out the window? This is a braindead MAGA level cope.
Living in australia right now. We still have a 2 party system, we still don't have socialism. Still 99% of people you talk to will say communism works great in theory but in practice...
I wished preferential voting would have changed things, but it doesn't.

This is exactly what the OP is about
I don't feel democrats are going to do anything for me. Yet I still feel heavy pressure to vote for then
The Democrat party is so incompetent. The election losses are their fault. Stop shaming people for not voting for a platform they hate, and shame the party for a terrible platform of inaction
Hows that genocide going by the way
Exactly the same as it was when your blue fash heroes were running the show

Basically, there's a set of amendments to existing legislation that would allow federal cabinet ministers to exempt any entity from any law, except the Criminal Code, for the purposes of “competitiveness or economic growth”.
This is very suspicious indeed. The abuse or lack thereof depends on a recedningly small set of people's beliefs. In a best case scenario, it could enable much faster than normal economic growth. In a less than good scenario.. yeah.
Yes, and the CCLA's brief on this is well worth reading. It looks far more closely at the lack of parliamentary oversight and vague wording (direct link to pdf) ourcommons.ca/Content/Committe…
And as I say, I'm not opposed to a thriving economy, but we have rules and regulations for a reason: to try to make sure that this "thriving" doesn't come at someone else's expense. And as we tumble further into climate catastrophe, "growth" often becomes one of those double-edged swords.
That aside though, sounds like we agree that this concentration of power is really concerning.

ICE is at the border of New Brunswick and Maine, premier says
New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt on Wednesday criticized the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the U.S. that has now spread to neighbouring Maine, saying it’s making people in her province “very, very uncomfortable” to have them at the border.
Holt told reporters in Ottawa that the presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at the New Brunswick-Maine border was affecting people with cross-border family and business ties that have already been struggling under strained relations due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs and attacks on Canada.
“We see what’s happening in the country,” she told reporters. “We see it in New Brunswick right now with ICE agents on the border of New Brunswick and Maine, in Calais. And it makes us all very, very uncomfortable.
“There’s nothing that we recognize in our neighbours right now, with the leadership that they have. We’re eager to support them in a return to the long-standing and strong partnership that Canada and the U.S. have had for generations.”

We don't need a bunch of toothless hillbillies with guns to take matters into their own hands for "National defence". You want to defend the nation part time? Join the reserves. You get to shoot more powerful guns than you're ever allowed at home, and you can ACTUALLY defend Canada.
We also have enough gun rights for everything you need a gun for. You want to hunt or shoot targets? Have at it. All you have to do is prove you can operate a gun safely and you can have as many guns as you want.
You want to shoot a human beings outside of sanctioned war? Thanks for outing yourself as someone who shouldn't have guns.
I am really fucking tired of this argument. Gun control in Canada has was never about public safety but was always about fear of people actually challenging the government. You know why in the recent years passing laws still using Polytechnique as the reason despite more recent (and deadlier) mass shootings? Because it was never about that.
In the 19th century and early 20th century gun laws in Canada were fuelled entirely by anti-Irish and anti-immigrant racism in general. In the 1970s the first real long-gun control was spurred by Quebec independence movements and in the 90s it was neither Polytechnique nor the Concordia shootings that spurred the modern gun license scheme. It was the Oka Crisis that had actual large numbers of armed First Nations forcing the government to negotiate instead of bulldozing over their land.
As for having enough gun rights for everything we need? Have you been living under a rock? Since 2020 the gun bans in Canada have gutted almost all shooting sports. Handguns cannot be obtained anymore, 3-gun is effectively dead, and they've banned thousands upon thousands of models of guns that were formerly non-restricted and uncontroversial, and now they stated they're going after shotguns and they're putting hinting at putting any shotgun with any kind of magazine on a to-ban list. They've also banned so many semi-automatic rifles that there are very, very few models that are legal, and I guarantee you, they will likely be mentioned soon.
They stated that any gun with a detachable magazine is not off the table for a ban. Do you understand that basically every single bolt-action rifle made after WW2 has a detachable magazine? It isn't a war on gun crime. It is a war on shooting sports. Canada now, you might find hard to believe, likely has fewer legal gun models than the UK.
In the UK their licenses are harder to get, but if you get them, there are no magazine limitations, manually operated AR-15 are legal, and there are no illegal semi-auto rimfire rifles or magazine restrictions on them. In Canada they effectively are going to ban almost all semi-auto rifles and they're going after many bolt-action rifles.
On top of that, the laws in Canada have never been proven to be effective. They're also extremely expensive and have never delivered on their promises of gun confiscation despite the massive claim that it has.
Tell you don't understand either guns or gun laws in Canada without telling me you don't know that.
You weren't talking about gun rights in any of these contexts. You were saying Canadians should have more powerful guns so they could shoot ICE agents (or similar potential invaders) that dare cross the border for "National defence", which is LUNATIC logic.
We already have national defence and it's not going to be improved with a bunch of poorly trained, undisciplined, disorganised half wits roaming the countryside making rogue decisions on who gets to live or die between sips of bud light.
Don't move the goal posts to an easily defensible strawman position so you can copy paste right wing gun activist rhetoric.

Canadian doctors say they’re losing 20 million hours a year to unnecessary paperwork
Some excerpts:
Aziz is not alone. Doctors in Canada each spend, on average, nine hours per week on administrative tasks, totaling 42.7 million hours annually across the country, according to a new report from the Canadian Medical Association and the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, which surveyed 1,924 physicians.The paperwork that fills Aziz’s mornings goes far beyond requisitioning tests and looking over lab work, the kind of things she says any doctor would expect to do.
It’s tracking down patient information that’s spread out over multiple systems. It’s resubmitting the exact same information multiple times because each pharmacy or clinic has its own specific forms.
Digitization isn't necessarily helping either, she said, because, oftentimes, the software that should be making things easier just isn't up to par.
"Sometimes it's one step forward, two steps back," she said. “You have to click a dozen boxes and then the patient's history won't populate because it has a dash, which is not an allowed character, you know?”

Do they break this out by province?
BC has a pretty good system now… except that it’s almost all hosted in the US.
Here is the report: digitallibrary.cma.ca/media/Di…
See "Appendix B: Provincial/territorial estimates of physician administrative burden and full-time equivalent gain" on page 37.
For BC specifically, there was this recent article:
cbc.ca/news/canada/british-col…
Family doctors in B.C. are calling on the province to cut digital red tape, saying outdated systems and unnecessary paperwork are slowing patient care and increasing wait times.It comes as a new national study shows doctors across the province are spending three million hours per year handling administrative work.
The latest report, released by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business and the Canadian Medical Association, released as part of the Red Tape Awareness Week, found that doctors in B.C. spend nearly 10 hours a week on administrative work.
It estimates that eliminating unnecessary paperwork in B.C. could free up an equivalent of more than 1,400 full-time doctors.
This all due to the fiefdom of each province refusing to work with each other instead of on their own. And the feds can't make them play nice.
